It is OUTRAGEOUS that the man in the article was so abused by the local “authorities.” And if incidents such as the one described in the article continue, I am confident that they will be answered appropriately.

Back on topic bump!

To the contrary: methinks the point of such abuse is precisely to discourage others from doing the same. The point is to “chill” exercise of a right: it may be legal, but one will likely suffer such harassment and pain as to convince people in general to not bother.
